Feb. 12, 2007 In the waning days of the GOP congress a law allowing for a 700 mile border wall was passed. Those who cared about the situation on the border were cautious, but optimistic. Now with the party of amnesty in charge once again there is no more room for optimism. Congressman Alcee Hastings(D-FL) has pretty much put the final nail in the coffin of immigration enforcement. Apparently the party that can find federal money for virtually everything can't find the money to secure the border. Instead the elites, so contemptous of the American people, have decided that "comprehensive" immigration reform is the way to go. For those illiterate in newspeak, comprehensive means amnesty. It means the legalization of eleven million criminals in the country and the invitation for more to come. We already have one tenth of Mexico's population in our country, why not one fifth? Why not one third? They prattle on about a guest worker program, and I'm willing to bet that any guest worker program will have so many holes in it that an Abrams tank could be driven through it. To put it in plain English guest workers never help the economy, they take jobs from citizens, and they are rarely guests. All the countries with guest worker programs have anemic economies. Germany, for example, imported Turkish guest workers to do the jobs "Germans won't do" (translation: the jobs the elites declared the Germans won't do.) The Turks have been their for quite a while now, the German economy isn't exactly a well oiled machine, and the German unemployment rate is pretty high, in part due to the guest worker program. Saudi Arabia has quite an extensive guest worker program, and an unemployment rate of about 25% to go along with it. The common mantra against the wall is that "if we build a 20 foot wall they will just build 21 foot ladders" Well, good. If they're making ladders in Mexico it means they don't have to come to the U.S. looking for work. All kidding aside a wall along the border is a good start. They had a wall along the California Mexican border and there wasn't hordes of Mexicans climbing over it, because the wall kept them out. A wall is not only essential for immigration sanity, but for our national security. Washington needs to be reminded of that. ------------ About the author: Craig Chamberlain has written more than 100 articles for Useless-Knowledge.com.
